A 15-foot log is cut into two pieces. How long is each piece if the longer piece is 1.5 feet shorter than twice the shorter piece?

Length of shorter piece is 5.5 foot and length of longer piece is 9.5 foot.

Step-by-step explanation:

It is given that a 15-foot log is cut into two pieces.

The longer piece is 1.5 feet shorter than twice the shorter piece.

Let the length of shorter piece be x foot.

Length of longer piece = (2x-1.5) foot

Combine length of both pieces = x+(2x-1.5) foot

Now,

Divide both sides by 3.

Length of shorter piece = 5.5 foot. So, length of longer piece is

Therefore, length of shorter piece is 5.5 foot and length of longer piece is 9.5 foot.

the real question is why is this guys last name heavyfoot

step-by-step explanation:

an = 22 + (n-1) *6

110 seats

step-by-step explanation:

an=a1+(n-1)(d)

a1 = 22   this is the first item in the sequence

d =6   this is how the sequence goes up

a)   an = 22 + (n-1) *6

b) a12 = 22 + (12-1) *6

    a12 = 22+11*6

  a12 = 22 +88

  a12 = 110
